A specialist degree course has been launched for managers, consultants and engineers looking to refocus on environmental entrepreneurship.

The degree is one of a series of new MScs available at the University of Strathclyde's recentlyopened Graduate School of Engineering.

The school-which opened this autumn - will train and develop graduate engineers and was created after consultation with the industry.

Brian Dickson, director of the school, says: "Our advanced courses were designed after extensive consultation with the engineering industries to help companies maintain their competitive edge in the global market, and recruit the best staff."
